Cinematographer Zach Zamboni, who worked with Bourdain on his food and travel shows "No Reservations" and "Parts Unknown", has a home in Portland and grew up in Milo.

Cooper dedicated his entire broadcast of "Anderson Cooper 360" to Bourdain, who he said was "one of this countries storytellers".

Anthony Bourdain's shockingly premature death happened when the famed chef sadly took his own life using the belt from a bathrobe located in the hotel room he was staying at in France, according to the prosecutor of Colmar in France's Alsace region and reported by the New York Post.

Remembering the rare dinner that made headlines back in 2016, and his memories in people's hearts, the former POTUS added, "He taught us about food - but more importantly, about its ability to bring us together".

He is survived by his 11-year-old daughter, Ariane.

Chef, food critic, and TV personality Anthony Bourdain has passed away at age 61. "His brilliant fearless spirit touched and inspired many, and his generosity knew no bounds". And yes, he also defended his partner Asia Argento when she called out Alec Baldwin for defending and protecting Harvey.

"Thoughts and love to all his family and close friends xxxxxxxxxxx". "I am beyond devastated". "You just did the hardest thing in the world", Bourdaintweeted at Argento after Ronan Farrow's scathing expose about Weinstein was published in the New Yorker.

We're working on a more detailed remembrance of Anthony Bourdain, involving you (the community).

"Anthony. One of my idols".

On CNN's "Parts Unknown", Bourdain delved into different cultures across the globe by talking and sharing meals with locals.

"We learned of the death by hanging of the American chef this morning in the Chambard luxury hotel in Kaysersberg", said Christian de Rocquigny du Fayel.
